Anyone else doing one? I'm planning to run a 6 miler (not a 10k, interestingly enough) at 11am. Smile

I doubt it but if I do it'll probably be one of the following... Fort Worth (10am) The Blackeye Pea 5k Dallas (10am) New Years 5 Mile Run

Hey Eric, I just priinted out the application, looks like I'll see you at the 6th Annual Run Your Hangover Off! Thanks Zoomie. Smile

First annual Revolution Run Maine Running Company and the Great Lost Bear are hosting the first annual Resolution Run at 11:30 a.m. on New Year's Day. There will be two distances to choose from -- 3 miles and 6 miles -- starting at Maine Running Company and ending at the Great Lost Bear. There is no fee, and t-shirts will be available for the first 20 participants. Donations will be accepted, and there will be a raffle and auction inside the Great Lost Bear, with all proceeds going to the Long Creek Youth Development Center. "Revolution" or "Resolution," lol? Whatever, I'm planning on running the shorter race this year. Hopefully, in 2009 the longer one will be a piece of cake!

Don't mention it--I hope you have a great time and aren't too worse for wear that morning. Smile

I'd rather be skiing. I'm a much better skier than I am runner. Cry

An odd distance for me as well. 9K 'Hair of the Dog' - ends with a Polar dip in Lake Ontario!

I'm planning on doing a 5 miler at the Campbell County YMCA in Northern, Ky. My usual NYD race is the Hangover Classic 10 miler in Louisville but I opted for a change of pace this year.

At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.
